Ni-rich cathode materials have been developed as the most promising candidates for next-generation cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries because of their high capacity and energy density. In particular, the electrochemical performance of lithium-ion batteries could be enhanced by increasing the contents of nickel ion. However, there are still limitations, such as low structural stability, cation mixing, low capacity retention and poor rate capability. Herein, we have successfully developed the nanorod-type Ni-rich cathode materials by using co-precipitation method. Particularly, the nanorod-type primary particles of LiNi_0.7Co_0.15Mn_0.15O₂ could facilitate the electron transfer because of their longitudinal morphology. Moreover, there were holes at the center of secondary particles, resulting in high permeability of the electrolyte. Lithium-ion batteries using the prepared nanorod-type LiNi_0.7Co_0.15Mn_0.15O₂ achieved highly improved electrochemical performance with a superior rate capability during battery cycling.

The performance dynamics of battery is very sensitive to operating conditions (i.e temperature, load current, and state of charge). A model developed based on certain conditions may perform well under the similar conditions but can not accurately predict the performance for changing conditions. Thus, a generalized model is needed which can accurately emulate the battery dynamic behavior under all conditions. In addition, the components of the model should relate to the physicochemical processes that occur inside the battery. Electrochemical impedance curve shows better visible reflection of the processes inside battery as compared to voltage curve. The model trained for parameterization using neural network has better generalization than simple curve fitting. Thus, this study proposes recurrent neural network based parameterization of the Lithium ion battery model followed by impedance based identification.

One-dimensional modeling was carried-out to predict the capacity loss of a lithium-ion polymer battery during cycling. The model not only accounted for electrochemical kinetics and ionic mass transfer in a battery cell, but also considered the parasitic reaction inducing the capacity loss. In order to validate the modeling, modeling results were compared with the measurement data of the cycling behaviors of the lithium-ion polymer batteries having nominal capacity of 5Ah from LG Chem. The cycling was performed under the protocol of the constant current discharge and the constant current and constant voltage charge. The discharge rate of 1C was used. The range of state of charge was between 1 and 0.2. The voltage was kept constant at 4.2 V until the charge current tapered to 50 mA. The retention capacity of the battery was measured with 1C and 5C discharge rates before the beginning of cycling and after every 100 cycles of cycling. The modeling results were in good agreement with the measurement data.

A fully integrated cost-effective and low-power single chip Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery protection IC (BPIC) for portable devices is presented. The control unit of the battery protection system and the MOSFET switches are integrated in a single package to protect the battery from over-charge, over-discharge, and over-current. The proposed BPIC enters into low-power standby mode when the battery becomes over-discharged. A new auto release function (ARF) is adopted to release the BPIC from standby mode and safely return it to normal operation mode. A new delay shorten mode (DSM) is also proposed to reduce the test time without increasing pin counts. The BPIC implemented in a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS process occupies an area of $750{\mu}m{\times}610{\mu}m$. With DSM enabled, the measured test time is dramatically reduced from 56.82 s to 0.15 s. The BPIC chip consumes $3{\mu}A$ under normal operating conditions and $0.45{\mu}A$ under standby mode.

The Lithium ion secondary battery has been developed for high energy density of portable electrical device and electronics. Among the many conductive polymer materials, the positive active film for Li polymer battery system was synthesized successfully from polyphenylene diamine(PPD) by chemical polymerization in our lab. And PPD-DMcT(2, 5-dimercapto-1, 3, 4-thi-adiazole) composite flim conductive material, at high temperature was also prerared with the addition of dimethylsulfoxide(DMSO). The surface morphology and thermal stability of prepared composite flim was carried out by using SEM and TGA, respectively. Electrochemical and electrical conductivity of composite flim were also discussed by cyclic voltammetry and four-probe method in dry box(<27pm). And the electrode reaction mechanism was detected and analyzed from the half cell unit battery system.

The open circuit voltage (OCV) is widely used to estimate the state of charge (SOC) in many estimation algorithms. However, the relationship between the OCV and SOC can not be exactly same for all batteries. Because the conventional OCV-SOC differs between batteries, there is a problem that the relationship of the OCV-SOC should be measured to accurately estimate the SOC. Therefore, the conventional OCV-SOC is modified to a new relationship in this paper. Thus, problems resulting from the defects of the extended Kalman filter (EKF) can be avoided by preventing the relationship from varying. In this paper, SOC and capacity of the lithium-ion battery are estimated using the dual EKF with the proposed method.

Orthorhombic $LiMnO_2$(o-$LiMnO_2$) has attracted public attentions as a cathode materials of Lithium ion battery because it has low cost and high theoretical discharge capacity of 285mAh $g^{-1}$. In our study, o-$LiMnO_2$ is synthesized by quenching method. To verify their phase structure, X-ray diffraction is accomplished. Test cells are assembled to check electrochemical characteristics using acquired o-$LiMnO_2$ cathode and carbon anode. Charge/Discharge cycling was carried out for 50cycles. And impedance was measured at 1, 2, 5, 10, 30, 50cycle. During cycle test, the max discharge capacity was recorded 139mAh $g^{-1}$ at 10cycle.

The flow and the moisture contamination of the dry room in the manufacturing process of lithium ion battery are analyzed numerically by finite volume method. Standard ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulent model widely applied in predicting turbulent flow is adopted in this study. Moisture contamination and distribution are studied by assumption of two cases; one-point generation and uniform generation throughout the room. To evaluate ventilation efficiency on moisture contamination, scales of ventilation efficiency are introduced. From these analyses, moisture contamination is strongly dependent on the flow field and the radius of moisture contamination can be reduced by closing a part of outlets in a dry room.

Charge/discharge property of LiMn2O4 was investigated with LiMn2O4/Li cell for use of lithium ion battery in electric vehicle. LiMn2O4 calcined at $800^{\circ}C$ for 36hr show high charge/discharge capacity and excellent cycle stability than that of others. This is found to be in agreement with expectation in the X-ray diffraction analysis. In addition, the kind and volume of conductive agent involved in LiMn2O4 cathode is excellent at super-s-black and 20wt%, respectively.
